hey yall, im back. I recently got permission to hunt an old vfw. WOW Indians out the a$$!!! Found 5 indian head pennies, 1859, 1868, 1882 and 1883, and the best one is the 1864 civil war indian, and yes, it does have the L!!! Best thing about these are they are in really really great shape. i also found an 1844 LC and 1803 half cent. No silver, hmmm The 1864 indian has a super nice petina on it and looks like it just came out of the mint, no scratches, no wear and the L really stands out. Thanks for looking, Greg

I knew where to look but it's still hard to tell if it is a L or corrosion... pretty sure it is the L..but not 100% commented to that
 

ok here is a pic of one from ebay with his right beside it, that is NOT corrosion that is 100% a 1864-L
:laughing7:
